Chevrolet Silverado: Climate Controls / Air Vents
Use the sliding knobs on the center and side air vents to change the direction
of the airflow.
Air vents blow warm air on the side windows in cold weather. If Floor, Defog,
or Defrost modes are selected, a small amount of air will come from the vents close
to the window.
To close the front a/c vents, move the sliding knobs to the full down position.
To close the rear a/c vents, move the sliding knobs to the full inboard position.
Operation Tips
- Clear away any ice, snow, or leaves from air inlets at the base of the windshield
that could block the flow of air into the vehicle.
- Clear snow off the hood to improve visibility and help decrease moisture
drawn into the vehicle.
- Keep the path under the front seats clear of objects to help circulate the
air inside of the vehicle more effectively.
- Use of non-GM approved hood deflectors can adversely affect the performance
of the system. Check with your dealer before adding equipment to the outside
of the vehicle.
The heating, cooling, and ventilation in the vehicle can be controlled with this
system.

If equipped, there is a small convex mirror built into the upper and outer corner
of the driver outside mirror. It can show objects that may be in the vehicle's blind
zone.
Driving with the Blind Spot Mirror

Actual Mirror View
When the approaching vehicle is a long distance away, the image in the main
mirror is small and near the inboard edge of the mirror.
As the vehicle gets closer, the image in the main mirror gets larger and
moves outboard.
As the vehicle enters the blind zone, the image transitions from the main
mirror to the blind spot mirror.
When the vehicle is in the blind zone, the image only appears in the blind
spot mirror.
